I really enjoy Dan’s history podcasts.  

In the latest under his Common Sense series, he says Trump is steering us into the iceberg of civil war.

Dan said he’s voting for Biden, whose presidency would simply be Obama part 2

He said Trump is a dangerous, narcissistic, authoritarian and can’t be trusted with our nuclear power

He failed to provide any example quotes. examples, or actions of Trump to support his claims.

What does Dan see in Trump that I’m missing?

So I made it about 35 minutes so far.

The first 16 minutes are fluff.  At about 16 minutes, he starts discussing Trump.  He accuses Trump of saying inflammatory shit that is gonna ignite civil war.  At about 32-34 minutes in, he's talking about how he's voted Libertarian since 1992 but would rather have Biden as President because Biden isn't authoritarian and Carlin doesn't trust a guy like Trump with the nuclear launch codes because he might start a nuclear war if he feels disrespected.  Forget the fact that Trump has had the nuclear launch codes for 3.5 years and hasn't launched them yet.

So far, Carlin hasn't talked about any of the authoritarian shit the DNC, liberals, Democrats, or Leftists have done.
--he hasn't talked about Harris saying protests/riots should continue indefinitely
--he hasn't talked about Harris encouraging people to contribute to Antifa bail funds
--he LITERALLY says "Biden would be a return to the kindler, gentler days of the Obama administration" but doesn't talk about the abuses of power then.

Maybe in the next 30 minutes Carlin will talk about the authoritarian acts of the anti-Trump forces, but holy shit he's very one-sided so far.  For a self-styled Libertarian he's quite blind to the abuses of the liberals/Leftists/Democrats.

I brought that up. He just completely skips past the proven track record of trump keeping us out of more wars and then says he doesn’t want an authoritarian state but knows that “we the people” doesn’t work. How someone so smart can be that dumb is infuriating.

In 2017, the media suggested that Trump’s plans to get out of the Iran nuclear deal and the Paris climate accord, to confront Chinese mercantilism, to forge new alliances between Israel and moderate Arab regimes, to isolate an ascendant Iran, to close the southern border to illegal immigration, to jawbone NATO alliance members into honoring their defense-expenditure commitments, and to destroy ISIS and weaken Hezbollah were all impossible, counterproductive or sheer madness.

And now?

An embargoed and bankrupt Iran is teetering on the brink. Its international terrorist appendages, including Hezbollah, are broke.

China is increasingly being ostracized by much of the world.

The U.S. has cut its carbon emissions, often at a rate superior to those nations still adhering to the Paris climate accord targets.

Cross-border illegal immigration has been reduced, according to many metrics.

ISIS was bombed into near dissolution. Moderate regimes in the Middle East are ascendant; radical cliques like Hamas and al-Qaeda are not.

More NATO members are meeting their commitments. The alliance’s aggregate defense investments are way up.

Is any of that considered news? Not really.

Instead, every three or four days the public is fed a series of fantasy “bombshells” much like the daily hysterias of the Robert Mueller investigation into alleged collusion between the Trump team and Russia — a two-year, media-hyped dud.

In recent weeks the media warned us that Trump was dismantling the Post Office to disrupt mail-in balloting.

Trump, we are told, has decided never to concede his sure loss in November and might have to be forcibly removed, perhaps by the military.

We read that Trump defiled the memory of fallen American soldiers in cemeteries abroad. We are lectured that Trump supposedly never took COVID-19 seriously.

All of these stories were either demonstrably untrue, were supported only by anonymous sources, or were the sensationalism of authors hawking books.

Yet such concocted melodramas will continue each week up to Election Day, while fundamental geostrategic shifts abroad brought about by American diplomacy will by intent go unnoticed.
